5G NR software stack is one of the key software development paradigms which requires considerable design consideration to enable 5G technology. One of the key shift for 5G would be moving from convention MIMO to massive MIMO. Availability of mmWave spectrum will lead to a dramatic increase in the bandwidth availability but this also comes with challenges of increased path/penetration/propagation loss. This would require accurately calibrated massive/multi-panel antenna, controlled and managed via sophisticated scheduling algorithms to reap the real benefits of the 5GNR.

Attend this session and learn the key design considerations for 5G New Radio software architecture.
